I keep blowing the horn fuse when I have everything bolted down and complete. The horn blows just fine when its dangling by the wires. I started troubleshooting the problem with my Fluke Multimeter and found continuity between one of the spade connectors on the back of the horn button and the retaining clip. When I pushed the horn button I then had continuity from the other spade to the retaining clip. The retainer clip is basically grounding the button to the hub so everything I push the horn button it is taking the 12v source to ground and blowing the fuse. Vehicle is a 1966 Mustang 2 wire horn. Please help
The way it works is that the buttons on aftermarket steering wheels connect to the steering wheel hub. The clock is static between these two pieces. The hub however will often have what's referred to as a clock spring or tab which rides against the back of the hub and allows you to have connection without ever worrying about wiring getting twisted. If you've ever owned a powerstrip where the plug part that goes into the wall can turn, it's a similar concept. Hope this helps.
Where do i purchase that button and bracket? Thanks for the video.
How do you take the button apart to install custom graphics?

so how do you connect the wiring from the wheel to the horn without creating a twisted mess when you turn the wheel?
